+That's code bound to be removed anyway, it's obsolete for quite
+a couple releases but it's not the moment for doing
+cleaning-that-have-no-impact-I-assure-upi.
+Though I wonder why the initial coder didn't reuse MDK::Common
+
+It's basically obsolete since march 2007 when I switch mdkonline
+from poor server side update computations to locally using
+urpmi core to compute updates which is both more scalable and
+quite a lot more accurate (taking into account provides, obsoletes,
+skip.list, actual packages avaibility on used mirrors and the like...).
+the server was using its own basic algorithm based only on packages list
